Description
Long Thatch is a house that was originally two cottages separated by a brewhouse with a bacon loft above. The left side likely dates from the 17th century, while the right side was built around 1729 and has been altered in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of rendered stone rubble and features a thatched roof with brick chimneystacks. It has one and a half storeys on the left side and two storeys on the right. The right side includes two 19th-century casement windows and a 20th-century glazed porch. The left side has one storey with three casement windows and a French window. Inside, the left side features a 17th-century spine beam with a thick chamfer, a bread oven, and chamfered floor joists. The right side's end bay is from the 18th century, and the adjoining bay is probably from the 17th century, with triangular cut-off stops. There is also a three-plank door.
